by Iago represents the Moor's wish that
the city rejoice. Every man takes on Q
merry mood; some begin to dance, some
to make bontires, and each man goes
to what sport and revels his addition
leads him." Cassie and Montana take
these instructions literally and the duel
follows. Montana wounded, Othello ar
rives. Cassie delivers up his sword, and
the people disperse. Desdemona appears,
and tender love duet finishes the first
act.
1t will be seen that Bolto, in cutting the
first act of Shakespeare's play, by sup
pressing Desdcmona' S appearance before
the senate and transpOsing the duel
scene, brings her on ut the moment when
calm must follow the storm. Instead OF
two almost nondescrlpt apparitions, we
have one. which, by its present arrange
ment, is the climax of the act, and phlo-
ton for such a climax. As n piece OF
dramatic writing, / have never seen its
equal IN intensity. One situation follows
another with such heudlong rush that !
can only think OF the arrows shot from q
bow.
GRAND SINGING.
In the second act, we have lagos solo
and great scene, with a short speaking
duet for Cassie and Iago. Desdemona is
seen at the back of the stage receiving
gifts from women and children who are
singing chorus that forms a most orig
inal accompaniment to duet with Iago
and O,hello, both of whom stand we'll to
the front. The chorus finished, Desde.
mona comes forward to solicit Cassie S
return to the Moor's favor quartette
follows, and the act ends with grand
duet between Othello and Iago.
Act third is where we have most of
Boito's changes from the original text.
lie has written trio for Cassie Othello
and Iago, called the handkerchief trio,
so admirable IN form and poetry that it
fits the English bard's play as n glove
fits the hand; then follows duet between
Desdemona and her lord; and one, more
terrible for Iago and Othello, then comes
the finale of the third act, which, in spite
OF its force, cannot help shocking the
Anglo-SaXon worshiuper at Shake
speare's shrine. w e know that Othello
was Moor and brute, but we cannot
imagine that he would have done what
Boito makes him do. The senators ar
Othello and also his required departure
for Venice. Othello. worked up to the
supremest heights OF jealousy in the pre-
ceding duet with IagO breaks forth into
paroXysm of passion unknown even to
Shakespeare's hero. Desdemona comes
forward and begs to be allowed 10 ac-
company her lord; she again almost i'm
prudently pleads Cassios cause, when
before court, senate and populace,
Othello filings her to the ground, scream.

Not a little has been done already by
means of household ventilation and sys-
tematic house drainage to purify the air
we breathe. In another direction very
little indeed has been accomplished,
though measures of reform are not only
most desirable, but are likely in many cases
to become, if carried out, an actual source
of income We refer to the refuse product
emitted by manufactures and wOrl1tields.
Notwithstanding the circulation of fresh
air which is constantly flowing over town
and country, it must be allowed that
there is in many places an excess Of nOX-
ious matter in the atmosphere above what
is compatible with healthy life. Coal

bOnic gases from brickfields, sulphurous
gases and hydrochlOric acid from metal
and chemical works, besides ammOniacal
vapors, vitrOus and nitric acids, arseni-

! gaseous products of decay, are still freely

| plainly perceptible by the senses, and il
not as plainly poisonous, has, without

Thomas Edison, the electrician, when
asked by newspaper interviewer what
he thought of the Keely motor, replied:
81 have never seen it, so have no Opin-
ion about it. But all the results he is
said to have obtained can be got from
compressed air. All the air in this room
can be condensed into a liquid that could
be carried in q filbert shell, Cnd its eXplo-
sive force would be tremendous. Skill
fully released and reconstructed, it would
move a great machine" In reply to the
question, "When motive power gets to be
four times as cheap as it is, Mr.. Edison,
what will become of the laboring manY'
''He will be enriched by it. Machinery
will be his slave. See how machinery has
multiplied in the last fifty years. AS a
direct result, workingmen get double the
wages they did then, and the necessities
of life cost only half as much. In other
words, a hand worker can today buy four
times as much with ten hours of work as
his father could fifty years ago. For the
first time in the worlds history a skilled
mechanic can buy barrel CT flour with a
single days work. The machinery in the
United States represents The labor OF
1000, GOO, 900 men, or fifty times as much
labor as that of all the men in the coun-
try.
''When motive power is still further
cheapened-say in another generation
believe that the unsEilled labOrer, if sober
and industrious, can have a house of his
own and a horse and carriage and q
library and a piano. 1t is terrible stu
pidity that leads some laboring men tt
suppose that machinery is their foe. Its
the thing that gives them independence
and even freedom. Without machinery
society would drift into the condition o.
master and slave. The multiplication o
machinery means for every worker mOrt
food, better clothes, better house, les
work. In fact, 1 believe that the indef
mite increase of machinery is going t,
solve what folks call the labor question
that is, the desire Of hand workers t.
get a bigger slice of the margin of profit.

A New Yorker rarely ever invites a
friend tc his house; if he wants to give
him dinner his appointment is for the
club and thus these institutions all over
the city are kept busy from to 10 in the
evening with these professional engage
ments. I coin this name for these COM
muniOns between men for the reason that
dinner engagements are made in New York
either for business or dissipation. If a
friend invites a gentleman to dinner he is
usually from out of town and is here upon
some mission of traffic or pleasure. There
fore the incident of taking a meal at the
club is simply the beginning of some COM
binatiOn of money making, or for wild
hurrah after the meal is over. New York
being the center of the United States
these combinations are numerous here,
and hence the prosperity of nearly all OF
its clubs. 1t matters not how or for what
purpose they are successful, but in this
season, when every one is complaining Of
hard times and the scarcity Of money, Tho
clubs of New York are more prosperous
| than ever, as rule. Notwithstanding
| this, life in most of them is hard and for
bidding.
The animosities between the tradesmeI
| of New York, who are its power and pur
| pose, are very severe. There are few
friendships in this great city, little mill
of human kindness, and less commercial
| honesty. In this connection / am speak
ing of the men and their relations witt
each other. Life here is a hOrrid crush
and when men can rob no outsider the
set up jobs on each other. To great eX
tent the clubs are the vehicle of the com
binations by which men may be made 0
broke, Just as the turn Of the wheel ma
make it possible or impossible.-NeN

Alfred II. Cowles advocates the use Of
aluminum bronze for heavy guns, and his
paper on the subject is to be discussed by
the United States Naval institute. Mr.
Cowles claims that guns made Of this
alloy win have a much higher tensile
strength and dtictility than those Of
steel; that they would not be SO liable to
burst, and that they could be cast at 20
per cent. less cost than the forged guns Of
steel, while go per cent. Of this cost would

On some parts Of the coast Of Sumatra
and the neighbOring islands the fishermen
test the depth Of the sea and also the ma
ture Of the sea bottom by the noises they
hear on applying the ear to one end Of an
oar Of which the other end is plunged in
the water. At depth Of twenty feet and
less the sound is a crepitation, similar to
that produced when salt is thrown on
burning charcoal; at fifty feet it is like
the ticking OF a watch, the tictac being
more or less rapid, according to whether
the bottom is entirely Of coral or alter
nately Of coral and mud, or Of sand. II

Alden to Lightning Rods.

The suddenness with which lightning
rods have fallen into disuse is rather q
curious fact. A few years since every
business house and private residence was
bristling with rods and points, while the
lightning rod agent was the most intoler-
able nuisance that ever imposed upon the
public. It was formerly thought that the
rod was a genuine protection to houses,
and for years people labored under this de-
fusion. But the facts is that the rod is not
a necessity, and is often a source Of posi-
tive danger. A residence or business
house is Just about as safe IN q storm
without a rod as with one, and the people
Of this generation have learned this fact
